I learned about this yesterday from a TheOdd1sOut video. The frequency illusion is real.

Base-3: 15 bits
Legal states only: 13 bits
Redundancy due to symmetry eliminated: 12 bits
Combining the previous two: I estimate 10 bits

15 bits is possible if you encode the state in base-3, where each digit represents one of the cells

That's an interesting way to spell proprietary

It's a miracle that the cafe's content filter didn't block 4chan

Was the personal computer invented by "John Computer"?

This sounds like a joke

 
 
 
 

Think about it: Lemmy provides you with a ready-made frontend and backend


all you have to do is host your own instance of it. The following could all have been implemented as Lemmy instances, had it existed at the time:

Of course, these all have very different rules and frontends, but those can still be changed.

In addition, members of other instances can visit these forums without having to create new accounts, thanks to everything being federated.

Isn't that cool?

 
 

I couldn't find a solution on the internet when I had this problem, so I thought I might share this with other people who run into it.

 
 

Consistency

As you may know, a message written in one Reddit client doesn't display the same in another. Here's an example:

Example

```
First line
Second line
```

reddit.com and the official app both render this correctly:

First line
Second line

old.reddit.com, however, renders everything on one line:

First line Second line

They also differ in how they render subscripts with parentheses (a^(\(b\))), nested subscripts (a^b^c), and code blocks and lists that immediately follow text.

Lemmy doesn't have these issues, since its Markdown specification is clearly defined.

Images

On Reddit, if you want to add images to a text post, you have to use the Fancy Pants editor on reddit.com. If you attempt to edit such a post on the official app, a third-party app, old.reddit.com or the mobile site, these images simply turn into links. Additionally, you can't attach images in comments.

Lemmy lets you attach images from anywhere, including comments.
